How much swap on laptop?

[David-Paul Niner]

Based strictly upon personal experience, unless you're running server  
services, you can reduce swap size on a laptop to 2/3 "twice the ram".  
  If you use LVM to configure other partitions, or leave space free on  
your hard drive during install, you can "adjust" this amount after the  
fact by deleting and re-creating your swap partition.
